CBF was proud to support the City of Homestead's "Sizzling Summer Challenge" to promote summer reading. Students were given a novel to read with an assignment that will be graded by the Mayor's Youth Council. Winning students will receive a week's worth of free uniforms and school supplies. Accepting the check are MYC Members (left to right): Samara Taylor, Rebekah Valle, Erika Smith and Julissa Maldonado.

The Mayor's Youth Council is fundraising to take an educational trip to Washington, DC and is in need of contributions. If you'd like to support these aspiring young leaders, contact Councilwoman Patricia Fairclough, the MYC liaison at PFairclough@cityofhomestead.com.
